does not seem like the waterpump. is the clutch set too loose?
usually in wire based clutches, if the clutch cable is set to be too loose, or if it is frayed, and needs replacement, the bike will jump and stall.
check that.

SOURCE: clutch engaged engine stalls 2003 Suzuki GSX-R 1000

The bike has a sidestand interlock that prevents you from riding away with the kickstand down. That interlock is not functioning properly. Could have been bent or moved, unplugged, or perhaps the relay has failed. If physically activating the switch does not work, and connecting the wires with a jumper does not work start looking at the turn signal relay, some bikes have that circuit integrated into the relay.

SOURCE: clutch engageing at start up

if your clutch is adjusted properly, it should not be doing that anyway, even if it is contaminated with gasoline. make sure clutch is properly adjusted, and if that doesnt work you made need to remove the clutch plates and clean them and lightly sand them to remove the fuel from the composite plates, fuel on them will make clutching operation jerky. they will clean themselves over time and a few oil changes if thats easier for you

Most of the safety systems use a diode pack in the loom to stop clutch and side stand switch etc from back feeding each other. Maybe this has failed. If not could it be in the loom, a broken or shorted wire. Look for a tight bend in the route the loom runs and external damage to the tape.

SOURCE: i have a 07 Gsxr

The clutch cable is the first place to check as it's a high failure rate part and also the easiest to fix. It you can see the clutch arm with the bike assembled, pull the handelbar handle and see if the arm moves all the way. under the counter shafts sprockets cover is the arm and it's adjustment screw it could have backed out or is brocken. You may be able to remove this cover and watch it operate. Does the handle bar lever pull in with the normal amount of play and feel? Most bikes that have been sitting though the winter can have stuck and now the cable or the clutch is stuck or broken. The clutch that was working and not the very next use probly not the clutch it's self but the cable and or the handle bar or linkage. Remove the cable and see if it moves smoothly if it binds at all or catches or requires any force to move or turn the cable in the housing it's bad and needs to be replaced. the aftermarket cables are cheaper and better than orginal equipment and can be aquired though the bike bandit ONLINE In the USA they ship to you in a few days and if your an AMA motorcyclist member you can get a 10 % discount and if your all the time rider the other benifits will helpyou too.

Why does my 98 Road King not stay in neutral the light says its in neutral but it will creep forward a buddy of mine says its the neutral safty switch? Any ideas?

If it's in neutral the clutch condition has nothing to do with it. The neutral safety switch is only to prevent starting it in gear and having the bike lunge so it's not that either. It's the gears pushing the oil around which puts some amount of push on any bike, but it shouldn't be noticeable. Verify that the oil type and level is correct. Does it creep less after it's warmed up? That's because the oil thins out some and has less push on the gears.

When i put my 1987 Yamaha Virago in gear, it dies

Yamaha motorcycles of this vintage often have issues with their kickstand switch. This switch can be disabled by clipping the two wires that go into the switch and wiring them together--the kickstand switch is normally closed (letting current flow) when the stand is up; the switch is open when the kickstand is down.
This is more afield than your electrical concerns, but if the clutch plates have bonded together, the bike will stall when you put the bike into gear. The bike will start and idle fine, but basically, you don't have a working clutch, so the bike will stall out when you dump it into gear while at a standstill. You can test for this by starting the bike and having someone push the bike to get up to a little speed, then trying to shift into 2nd gear. If the bike lurches forward before stalling or keeps running, you have a clutch, not an electrical issue.
Folks sometimes get lucky, and working the clutch plates a few times will free up the sticking plates. I have had this problem with a mid-1970s vintage Honda that I don't ride very often. Eventually, the clutch plates free up and the bike is good to ride again.
Good luck!

CLutch gl1000 creeps

HiChange to bike oil
Unlikely to have to change the clutch
Clutch not disengaging
Make sure cable has only a couple of mm play. If unable to adjust at handlebars then adjust at clutch end
A quick & dramatic way to unseize clutches is to put front wheel up against a wall or similar, bike at 90 degrees to it, front brake on, with full riders weight on seat, in neutral hold clutch in & handlebars straight, rev her up to 3 - 4000rpm, brace your arms & dump her into 1st gear
The shock will generally free-up even a completely seized clutch
The other option is to strip & clean the clutch plates

I put the bike in gear and hold the clutch in and within a couple of seconds the bike creeps forward and i have to hold the brake on to stall it.

I would suggest that if you have a hydraulic clutch, the master or slave cylinder is leaking back into the system. If mechanical, check the clutch play adjustment.
